Chapter 346: Chapter 351: Four Incompatible_1
Just as the ancient giant serpent was struggling, a huge grey phantom rushed out from the abyss, so vast it spanned tens of thousands of zhang.
In its eyes, the size of the ancient giant serpent was like an infant, extremely small.
As for Qin Wudao, in its eyes, he was like a speck of dust.
GULP.
Qin Wudao couldn’t help but swallow, utterly shocked. The enormous beast in front of him possessed the "Majesty of the Dragon, Nobility of the Phoenix, Courage of the Kirin, and Spirit of the Turtle," radiating a heaven-shaking aura.
The land above the abyss trembled, and heavenly thunder boomed, creating an apocalyptic scene.
"It’s the divided spirit of the Primordial Supreme’s mount, called Four Incompatible!" the Kun Daoist explained.
Standing within the Kunlun Bell, he gazed upon the Four Incompatible, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He reminisced about the time when this beast was among the first group of creatures to emerge after the creation of the world. It was powerful, dominating both the nine heavens and ten lands.
Later, when the Primordial Supreme achieved enlightenment, he subdued it and took it as his mount. In the final battle, it made outstanding contributions and was revered by countless people.
As a primordial creature, it possessed an undying body and an endless lifespan, yet it still could not escape death!
"Die!"
The Four Incompatible took to the sky, riding on seven-colored clouds, and slapped down with its palm.
BOOM!
The ancient giant serpent, in the Quasi-emperor Realm, had no ability to fight back and was instantly blasted into countless fragments.
After dealing with the ancient giant serpent, the Four Incompatible turned to look at Qin Wudao. It slowly lowered its head, a glint of confusion flickering in its blood-red eyes.
"Senior, it won’t kill me, will it?" Qin Wudao asked anxiously.
Being stared at by the Four Incompatible, he felt a chill spread through his body, rendering him unable to move. This was the sense of his own insignificance that a mortal feels when looking up at a god, as well as the terror of facing Death itself.
"I’m not quite sure myself!" The Kun Daoist’s tone revealed his unease.
Although the Four Incompatible was just a mount, in terms of strength or status, it was not inferior to the Kunlun Supreme in the slightest. He, too, couldn’t predict the Four Incompatible’s temperament.
"Senior, this junior, Qin Wudao..." Qin Wudao began, bowing respectfully in greeting.
Before he could finish, the Four Incompatible buzzed, "You’re so weak, yet you dare to come to the Legacy Space?"
A corner of Qin Wudao’s mouth twitched. He laughed awkwardly, "Senior, among the younger generation, my strength should definitely rank in the top three!"
The Four Incompatible frowned slightly and took a closer look at Qin Wudao, a hint of shock appearing on its face. "Such a powerful constitution, one that I cannot see through? By the way, what year is it now?"
"Replying to Senior, it is year 3,006 of the Ninth Epoch!"
"The Epoch Calendar? How many years are in each epoch?"
"Fifty million years!"
While the man and the beast conversed, countless points of light surfaced in the unfathomable abyss. These points of light transformed into various shapes, creating a series of images.
Qin Wudao was surprised to find that these images, like the ones in the Ten-Thousand-Li Corridor, recorded numerous significant events.
Unfortunately, the scene he most wanted to see did not appear.
"How could this be? It’s ten years earlier than expected!" the Four Incompatible exclaimed. Instantly, all the images ceased, and the abyss was once again enveloped in darkness.
From the look in its eyes, Qin Wudao could see astonishment and confusion, as well as an undercurrent of fear.
"The only one who could open my Master’s legacy trial grounds early is ’It’!"
"The situation has deteriorated even more severely than Master imagined. The plan ’It’ is carrying out should be nearing completion. No... I must find a way!"
As the Four Incompatible muttered to itself, its expression constantly changed. Finally, its gaze settled on Qin Wudao, and it pondered, He is the first to arrive here, and he possesses a constitution that even I cannot see through. Perhaps he is the destined one Master spoke of!
Qin Wudao felt his scalp tingle under the Four Incompatible’s gaze. He continually scanned his surroundings, looking for a possible escape route.
"Follow me!" the Four Incompatible said sternly. Its huge figure gradually shrank until it was the size of an ox, and then it flew towards the depths of the abyss.
Qin Wudao hesitated for a moment, but remembering the scene where the Four Incompatible had killed the ancient giant serpent with a single slap, he obediently followed.
What he didn’t know was that a stunning conspiracy was unfolding in the secret realm at that very moment.
「Inside the Elixir Garden of the Primordial Heavenly Lord」
A crack appeared in the void, and a figure in a black robe stepped out. He held a crystal ball in his hand, which emitted a faint white light.
"I should be the first to arrive. Next, it’s time to hunt some prey!" Soul Martial Ancestor looked at the crystal ball and gave an evil smile, then began to fly about randomly.
He didn’t even glance at the precious spiritual medicines in the garden, treating them as mere weeds!
After wandering for over an hour, Soul Martial Ancestor’s steps came to a halt. The crystal ball emitted a dazzling red light, forming five large characters that read ’Three-World Buddha Body,’ with an arrow appearing beside them.
"Finally, prey has arrived!" Soul Martial Ancestor grinned coldly. His figure flickered, and he flew in the direction indicated by the arrow.
Six hundred li away, Saving the World stepped out of a fissure in the void. Dressed in a yellow monk’s robe and carrying a khakkhara staff, his eyes shone with a wise light as he walked unhurriedly through the void.
"Amitabha! Since you have come, Benefactor, why hide yourself?" After walking for more than thirty li, Saving the World stopped and spoke softly.
On an ancient tree several hundred zhang away, Soul Martial Ancestor materialized, holding a chain that emanated a black gas.
"Today is your death day!" Soul Martial Ancestor said coldly, like a deity who held power over life and death, passing judgment on all living beings.
WHOOSH!
A sound of tearing air was heard as his dark chain flew towards Saving the World, weaving through the void.
"Vajra Palm!"
Saving the World responded calmly, an arcane Buddha seal appearing in his palm. A golden Buddhist light flared, containing supreme brute force, as it struck towards the chain.
The Vajra Palm was one of the seventy-two ultimate skills of the Thunder Sound Temple. When executed with a Buddha seal, it could unleash an attack several times more powerful.
Once perfected, a single palm could shatter a Dao Domain.
"The strength of an ant!"
Soul Martial Ancestor sneered, a hint of white light appearing in his eyes. This was the power of the Great Dao, exuding a supreme aura.
Instantly, the black chain’s power dramatically increased. It effortlessly penetrated the Buddha seal and wrapped around Saving the World’s body. Countless streams of black gas madly poured into his system.
"To be able to sense the power of the Great Dao before your death is the greatest gift I can give you!"
Soul Martial Ancestor stepped forward and said with a cold expression.
Gripping the chain, he tugged gently. The chain began to constrict, causing Saving the World’s face to flush red as he struggled to breathe.
"Amitabha!"
"If I do not enter hell, who will?"
"Buddhism, by its nature, exists to aid the world and save its people. The faith of billions forges the Buddha’s Golden Body..."
As death approached, Saving the World closed his eyes and murmured these words. There was no fear in him; his lips even curved into a faint smile.
Soul Martial Ancestor frowned, looking at the corpse before him without speaking for a long time. Saving the World’s final words and expression had deeply unsettled him, sending a chill through his very soul.
BUZZ...
At this moment, the crystal ball once again burst into red light, forming three large characters signifying ’Space-Time Divine Body.’
Startled from his thoughts, Soul Martial Ancestor collected Saving the World’s remains and, following the crystal ball’s guidance, set off to find his next target.
